Question #1
The prefix 'Peta' in the SI system represents which power of 10?
A. 10^15
B. 10^12
C. 10^18
D. 10^9

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
In the SI system of prefixes, 'Peta' stands for 10^15. Other common large prefixes include Kilo (10^3), Mega (10^6), Giga (10^9), Tera (10^12), and Exa (10^18). It's crucial to memorize both positive and negative powers (like nano, pico, femto) for competitive exams.

Question #2
A 50 kg person climbs 30 steps each 15 cm high in 10 s. Power (g=10) is
A. 300 W
B. 225 W
C. 2250 W
D. 150 W

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Height = 30×0.15=4.5 m. Work = 50×10×4.5=2250 J. Power=2250/10=225 W.

Question #3
Kepler's Second Law of planetary motion (Law of Areas) is a direct consequence of the conservation of:
A. Linear Momentum
B. Total Mechanical Energy
C. Angular Momentum
D. Kinetic Energy

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Kepler's Second Law states that the line joining a planet to the Sun sweeps out equal areas in equal intervals of time (areal velocity is constant). Because the gravitational force is a central force (acting strictly along the radius vector), it exerts zero torque on the planet. When net torque is zero, angular momentum is strictly conserved.
